Mojo Monday: A Simple Zen Koan with a Big Life Lesson
About this episode
In this episode of Mojo Monday, Carly Taylor explores the quiet wisdom of a Zen koan—a simple phrase that invites reflection on our human tendency to resist what is, and a gentler path toward clarity and purpose. If you're going through a struggle right no, this episode might offer another way to meet what’s here.
Carly Taylor is a Mental Fitness Coach and speaker who helps people live with clarity and purpose—even in the midst of life’s inevitable challenges.
Her approach is grounded in Japanese Psychology, particularly Morita-based therapy, which teaches us to accept our internal experience and take meaningful action. Carly also draws on tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), stoicism, and evidence-based counselling frameworks to support people in building emotional resilience and living in alignment with their values.
